conversion of steam at 100 C to water at 100 C :

m = mass of the steam = 50 g

L = latent heat of condensation of steam to water = 79.7 J/g

Heat released in conversion of steam to water is given as

Q₁ = mL

inserting the values

Q₁ = (50) (79.7)

Q₁ = 3985 cal


conversion of water at 100 C to water at 37 C :

ΔT = change in temperature = 100 - 37 = 63 C

c = specific heat of water = 1 cal/(gC)

m = mass of water = 50 g

Heat released in change of temperature is given as

Q₂ = m c ΔT

Q₂ = 50 x 1 x 63

Q₂ = 3150 cal

total heat released is given as

Q = Q₁ + Q₂

Q = 3985 + 3150

Q = 7135 cal

As the steam touches the skin, it undergoes a phase change and releases latent heat due to the phase change. As it reaches equilibrium, it releases sensible heat. We calculate as follows:

Q = latent heat + sensible Heat
Q = 2.26 kJ / g (50.0 g) + 50.0 g ( 4.18 J / g C) (37 C - 100 C) ( 1 kJ / 1000 J)
Q = 99.833 kJ

A plane took 7 hours to travel 2020 km. For the first 4 hours,
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

-6.6 km/h

Explanation:

In 7hr plane travelled 2020km;

For the first 4hr the average speed was 310km/h;

d=st, s=d/t;

Distance covered in first 4h is d = 310km/h×4h = 1240km;

See the image attached for further solution

A 10-meter-long, 150 kg beam extends horizontally from a wall.One end of the beam is fixed to the wall and the other end is atta
kow [346]

Answer:

the magnitude of the tension on the cable necessary to keep the system in equilibrium is 1060.9 N

Explanation:

Given that;

Length L = 10 m

mass of beam m_b = 150 kg; weight W_beam = 150×9.8

mass of sign m = 75 kg

distance of sign hung from the beam from the wall d = 2.50 m

angle ∅ = 60°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Now,

Torque acting at one end of the beam will be;

T_{net} = Tsin∅ × L - mg(d)-W × (L/2)

for equilibrium, T_{net} = 0

therefore, 0 = Tsin∅ × L - mg(d)-W × (L/2)

so we substitute

Tsin(60°) × 10 - 75×9.8(2.50) - 150 × 9.8× (10/2) = 0

Tsin(60°) × 10 - 1837.5 - 7350 = 0

Tsin(60°) × 10 - 9187.5 = 0

Tsin(60°) × 10 = 9187.5

divide both side by 10

Tsin(60°) = 918.75

T × 0.8660 = 918.75

T = 918.75 / 0.8660

T = 1060.9 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the tension on the cable necessary to keep the system in equilibrium is 1060.9 N

Why does changing the shape of an object have no effect density of that object?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
It is because change in the Mass of the object balances the change in the Volume of the object equally...........
